I won hundred percent agree. All of these mental health disorders can cause panic attacks, but due to a different things for example, I...

You have actually tried hash browns with orange juice on them..........(just in case it works.....)

Sorry for taking so long to reply! It’s great that you found a psychiatrist that’s helpful for you, as well as treatment. I’m sorry...

Oh yes @Movingforward10 I hear you loud and clear. Why doesn’t anyone help me??? Uhhh nobody knows.

Totally relate too. I remember one day at work, just swirling around with vivid images and thoughts of trauma in my head, and hosted a...

That’s definitely a good point, that clinical depression **isnt situational** it’s just odd because this is the first time for me it...

I relate to this so much. I compartmentalize so hard, I too can just shove my mental breakdown into a “box” and force myself to act and...

I know it sounds like basic advice, but everyone is a different person living a different life than you. Don’t compare your life to...

This is kinda where I am. The only time meds have helped is at crazy-high doses (like 4-5x the normal recommended high). The side...

People certainly do use panic in a very loose sense. There isn’t any real hard line to mark when something is bad enough for panic, so...

Yeah I have this experience with PTSD. I can compartmentalize and tough it out and deal with something later but if I don’t deal with...

No, I don’t think you are being an asshole. It’s ok to question things. I don’t know about panic attacks, but I know that delayed...

I’m stubbornly anti-psychiatrics, but then again coffee releases serotonin and dopamine and when I’m depressed I can drink up to three...

I hear people say things like “There was a fight at school, it affected me so much I went home and had a panic attack” or “I had a panic...

I’ve been depressed for two weeks, maybe more, maybe less, hard to keep track. I have PTSD from childhood trauma, and major depressive...

Pro Trick If you forget where your keys are? That’s normal. If you forget what keys are FOR? That’s dementia. What keys are for = Comb...

Best of luck with it! It’s not easy finding a good psychologist but well worth the time.

I think I am going to need to become more at peace with this concept! The idea of not knowing what is what/which is which feels a bit...

Sorry for my delay replying here, everyone - I was finding it difficult to focus on this thread (ha!) and then haven't been online much...

Great tips @Roland ! Thank you for these 😃 What you say about habit I think it's so true... and a good reminder.... I think I am quite...

For some practical tips, try to park in the same spot everyday, habit overrides memory (or make “rules” like you always park in the back...

I cancelled my therapy appointment this week as I was tired of asking for help and having handouts shoved in my face. Ok, I can get...

You’re welcome! I honestly need to do some of the things from this thread. I haven’t been suicidal in two years but it’s one of those...

Mine don’t respond to grounding or breathing techniques. My new counselor told me to try something else. Just go with it and see where...

That’s a good point

Yeah you’re right, I guess I was referring to people that seem to think that can happen instantly. Like “There’s no reason to cry” like...

I’ll look into it then but I’m definitely leery of obsession xD

No I have no subscription and yes you can use it without the watch, its just the watch tracks activity so I get calories in and out...

Oh I see, maybe I’ll look into it. Is it a subscription? Can you use it without the watch?

I wish I could take in as much data on my diet like you do without becoming obsessive about it. It sounds really effective to know all...

When you insist that you cannot possibly have ptsd because your trauma wasn’t *that* bad. (Lalalalala sticks fingers in ears, nope, no...

When you hear yourself explain how driving to a restaurant is easier than making a sandwich.

First time waking up not in a panic attack for a few weeks, so let’s go watch a movie guaranteed to trigger one! 😖 Outstanding...

Here’s a gift: A friend of mine makes it

Fascinating

Yes I've exhausted the medical options. Those were the doctors' first guesses. Magnesium and ginger are part of my daily regimen; they help.

The calm your way out of it idea is honestly super frustrating no matter what kind of panic you’re dealing with xP Hey but on a...

@Laceymae33 this article discusses how panic disorder symptoms originate differently from anxiety symptoms. Researchers tend to assume...

Yep, yep. And that right there is the difference between Panic Disorder panic attacks, and panic attacks from PTSD, or GAD, or OCD, or...

The thing that’s tricky about that, is that just because you don’t recognize what triggered it doesn’t mean something didn’t trigger it...

From what I understand it's not "panic disorder" if it's clearly tied to an emotional trigger or experience. Like @enough described...

Interesting experience. What I have called an “anxiety attack” for years, is like panic, crying, feeling the need to escape asap...

I feel you on this. I don’t have ADHD, but going in for my psych eval, I was nervous of getting diagnosed with BPD or Bipolar or...

Yes, I eat a lot of nuts. I do eat eggs that I buy at the store, and lots of beans, tofu, tempeh. I am also flexible at certain times...

I think it makes sense, it takes a lot of energy to eat and digest food.
